Abstract
The article deals with the problem of respect for personal autonomy in sports and the practice of restricting athletes. The two justification factors for restrictions, medico-paternalistic and ethical, are in close correlation with each other and with the ethics of public competitions. The article analyzes the problem of respect for personal autonomy from the point of view of the contradiction between the formally rational set of rules that reflect the standards of fair sports and the unformalized impulse of an autonomous actor, determined by his desire for self-realization and public recognition in its entirety, including the features of biosocial identity. The article analyzes the case of female athletes with a naturally elevated level of testosterone in the blood.
